Original Sound for Musicians Toggle Gone

Hi All,

In a recent update, I noticed that I can no longer toggle the original sound for musicians option on the top of the main screen.  I can change it completely in audio settings, but that's a pain if I want to go back and forth during a meeting.  For instance, I teach piano over Zoom.  When I want to play something for a student, I turn original sound on.  But if I'm typing a student's notes, I don't want the clacking of the keyboard to be heard.  So before, it was really easy to toggle on the main screen.  Now it seems you can only change it in audio settings.

 

Anyone else having an issue with this or has found a solution like a shortcut?

 

Thanks.

Welcome to the Zoom Community, @Pianonmanross.

 

Big change! Original Sound for Musicians no longer needs to be activated each meeting. Go down to the caret ^ by the Audio button and see the ability to change sound settings there. Whatever you set should be persistent between sessions. 

UPDATE:

I’ll add my voice to this chorus. I toggle original sound on/off multiple times during piano lessons, and this update makes it very awkward. Please change it back.
